Rename Image Files based upon the EXIF GPS Altitude / Height

[rikbijl]

Hi all,
Wondering if you can Rename Image Files based upon the EXIF GPS Altitude / Height ?
If this is possible than I would like tot arrange the renamed files in seperate directories / folders
For example : all pictures between 100-120 meters in a dir/folder named 100-120.
Hope somebody can help .

Cheers Rik

This will sort files into subdirectories below there currently location. It gets funky with negative numbers though
exiftool "-Directory<${GpsAltitude#;my $lb=(int($_/100)*100);$_=$lb.'-'.($lb+99)}" /path/to/files/

Example. Note how negative numbers are off. That is because the int (integer) rounds toward 0. This means -1 to -99 will end up in the postive grouping. If you need more accuracy with negative numbers, it will be more complex and probably should require a config file.
